Spirulina albida is a chlorophyll-free, heterotrophic and saprotrophic freshwater cyanobacterium from the genus Spirulina . [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] "Spirulina albida" occur in surface films. [6]
Spirillum is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria in the family Spirillaceae of the Nitrosomonadales of the Betaproteobacteria. There are two species of Spirillum with validly or effectively published names - Spirillum winogradskyi and Spirillum volutans.
In taxonomy, Methanosalsum is a genus of microbes within the family Methanosarcinaceae. This genus contains two species.
Vampirococcus is an informally described genus of ovoid Gram-negative bacteria, but the exact phylogeny remains to be determined. This predatory prokaryote was first described in 1983 by Esteve et al. as small, anaerobic microbe about 0.6 μm wide before being given the name of Vampirococcus in 1986 by Guerrero et al. This prokaryote is a freshwater obligate predator that preys specifically on various species of the photosynthetic purple sulfur bacterium, Chromatium. As an epibiont, Vampirococcus attaches to the cell surface of their prey and "sucks" out the cytoplasm using a specialized cytoplasmic bridge. They are commonly mentioned as an example of epibionts when discussing strategies employed by bacterial predators. This microbe still has yet to be classified based on genomic sequencing or 16S rRNA because it cannot be sustained long enough outside its natural environment to isolate a pure culture.
Rhodovulum sulfidophilum is a purple bacteria. The cells are rod-shaped, 0.6 to 0.9 μ wide and 0.9 to 2.0 μ long, and motile by means of polar flagella. Cell division occurs by binary fission. Its pigments consist of bacteriochlorophyll a and of carotenoids, most probably of the spheroidene group. The new species needs 2.5% (w/v) sodium chloride for optimal growth. The bacteria has a high sulfide tolerance. Sulfide and thiosulfate are oxidized to sulfate without an intermediate accumulation of elemental sulfur. It can either grow photoautotrophically or photoheterotrophically.
Psychrobacter is a genus of Gram-negative, osmotolerant, oxidase-positive, psychrophilic or psychrotolerant, aerobic bacteria which belong to the family Moraxellaceae and the class Gammaproteobacteria. The shape is typically cocci or coccobacilli. Some of those bacteria were isolated from humans and can cause humans infections such as endocarditis and peritonitis. This genus of bacteria is able to grow at temperatures between −10 and 42 °C. Rudi Rossau found through DNA-rRNA hybridization analysis that Psychrobacter belongs to the Moraxellaceae. The first species was described by Juni and Heym. Psychrobacter occur in wide range of moist, cold saline habitats, but they also occur in warm and slightly saline habitats.
Moraxella nonliquefaciens is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the upper respiratory tract of humans. M. nonliquefaciens occasionally causes disease.
Deinococcus indicus is a species of arsenic-resistant bacterium. It is Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-sporulating and red-pigmented, with type strain Wt/1aT.
Lentibacillus juripiscarius is an aerobic, spore-forming, Gram-positive, moderately halophilic bacteria, with type strain IS40-3T.
Prosthecomicrobium is a genus of aerobic bacteria which was isolated from freshwater samples.
Prosthecomicrobium pneumaticum is an aerobic bacterium from the genus of Prosthecomicrobium which has been isolated from freshwater.
Streptomyces antimycoticus is a bacterium species from the genus of Streptomyces which has been isolated from composted soil. Streptomyces antimycoticus produces helixin and napyradiomycins.
Streptomyces bobili is a bacterium species from the genus of Streptomyces which has been isolated from garden soil.
Phenylobacterium is a Gram negative, strictly aerobic non-motile and bacterial genus from the family of Caulobacteraceae which can grow on chloridazon–mineral salts.
Anaeromusa acidaminophila is a bacterium from the genus of Anaeroarcus which has been isolated from an anaerobic purification plant.
Flammeovirga is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming and motile genus from the family of Flammeovirgaceae with one known species which first has been isolated from marine mud. Flammeovirga produce zeaxanthin, poly-β-D-glutamic acid and poly-β-L-glutamine.
Kibdelosporangium philippinense is a bacterium from the genus of Kibdelosporangium which has been isolated from soil on the Philippines.
Clostridium disporicum is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped and anaerobic bacterium from the genus of Clostridium which has been isolated from the caecum of a rat in England.
Marinococcus is a Gram-positive, strictly aerobic, chemolithoautotrophic and non-spore-forming genus of bacteria from the family of Bacillaceae.
Paraliobacillus is a Gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic and endospore-forming genus of bacteria from the family of Bacillaceae.
The Dermacoccaceae is a family of bacteria placed within the order of Actinomycetales. Bacteria af this familia are Gram-positive, non-spore-forming and non-motile. Dermacoccaceae bacteria occur on the skin.
